You're still ahead of me! I have a vert on order with Victory Red. Delayed because I wanted to wait for that colour. Dealer tells me I will be preferenced in October with a production date sometime in November.

My money says we will not see our cars until closer to spring.

Let me know how your order progresses- I'll do the same.

Paul

Greg were they a silver Z51 automatic and a black Z51 manual version at Humberview? Most of the Ontario dealers are getting the Z51 option in almost every C6 that shows up! What suspension did you order for your C6?

Default How did you get a Canadian TWP

My dealer in N. Vancouver tells me all he can get for me is my order number because GM Canada uses a different routing system. My order code is A-31603 but that is all I have to go by. If anyone knows anything about the Canadian system please let me know.

Your dealer should be able to explain the CDN system to you and GM's Customer Service 1-800 line is a good source too.

My order number is A22849 - Victory Red convertible with gray trim and black top. My dealership advises that only they have a record of the car's order. Meaning until the order is "preferenced" it hasn't gone any farther than that.

On a regular basis the dealerships - in Canada anyway - are advised of how many cars they can order based on their allocation. They in turn take their customer's orders and fill them as cars are assigned to them.

My dealership has - I think my numbers are close - delivered two coupes - have 3 or 4 more on order and a silver on black coupe (unsold) in their showroom. To this point - although I put a deposit on mine in February - they have not been able to order any convertibles. I'm told I'm number one when they do.

Hope this helps.

In my dealer's defence - I delayed the process waiting for confirmation I could get Victory Red. That was confirmed only a few weeks ago - now we wait for preferencing.

Girls,Girls,Girls you sound like a bunch of women waiting for breast implants and theirs only one doctor. Six months from now you'll be wishing for another color or a different option like a different pair of shoes, since you bought them site unseen. Kind of like a mail order bride.lol

I hope they are giving it to you for MSRP?

There is a dealer in Winnipeg selling a Coupe for $76,000.
